DB Play

So far it looks like there is no significant drop in the level of play between the high dollar guys (Ike/Troy) v Willie Gay, Shamarko...etc

In fact, Steven Hill made Ike and Troy look pretty slow on that deep ball that was slightly overthrown. With the recent addition of Will Allen, solid play of Willie Gay..and the emergence of Shark Thomas, it's starting to look like some of those older guys are expendable (if not willing to restructure their contracts after the season.) If we get Cortez Allen back on track we will be in pretty good shape even if the older guys leave at the end of the year.

I agree. Clark is slow as dirt and Troy haven't guessed right in three seasons.

I agree Clark is getting slow. I think this has to be his last year. I thought the play that Hill got open deep there was a little confusion between Ike and Troy because both slowed down for a second maybe thinking the other one had Hill.

I missed the game you were watching; Troy and Ike both had good games, Ike gave a couple catches, nothing major and Troy missed one tackle in the backfield, but other than that they both played very well today, IMO.

Never said they had a bad game... just said I didn't see the drop off from them to the other DBs.
